    This is the original CD version of A New Low. If you purchase this on bandcamp, you will also get to download the 24-bit extended version with one extra track.

    Produced in collaboration with Pete Weiss of Verdant Studio, recorded at Armory Sound, Dimension Sound Studios and Milk Row Cemetery, with art work by Lisa Deupree; songs by some of our favorite artists, including Brian Eno, Latin Playboys and Dock Boggs. Of course some Morphine chestnuts by Mr. Sandman, done in our own fashion.

    Our auxiliary drummer Jeff Allison played on two tracks and produced the opening Wind Up Radio. And our dear friend, Malian musician Boubacar Diabaté sings on an alternate version of the track Renouveau/Daman N’Diaye found on the bandcamp extended 24-bit download version; his voice is sampled for the CD version.

    We are our own worst critics, and we are really very happy with the way this thing turned out. Really, REALLY happy. We hope you enjoy our addition to the low rock universe.

lyrics

Souvenir

by Mark Sandman

I remember meeting you, we were super low
Surrounded by the sounds of saxophones
And I remember being this close, but never alone
You gave me a little something to take home
I dropped it on the floor, I dropped it on the floor
Dropped it on the floor, I dropped it

If I can only remember the name that's enough for me
Because names hold the key, names hold key
If I can only remember the name that's enough for me
Because names hold the key, names hold key
Souvenir of nothing

Brought home a souvenir of nothing
It fits into a pocket
A souvenir, a souvenir of nowhere
Somewhere I've never been before
I dropped it on the floor, I dropped it on the floor
Dropped it on the floor, I dropped it

If I can only remember the name that's enough for me
Because names hold the key, names hold key
If I can only remember the name that's enough for me
Because names hold the key, names hold key
A souvenir of nothing, a souvenir of nothing
